MAIL TO COME
BY RAILWAY
I stage will be cut down nearly 48

Applications for this service
was made to the postoffice de­
partment as soon as the Oregon
Trunk started operating over the
, new road, but the request had to
be handled through the usual
channel o f officials between Port­
land and Washington, with the
result that inauguration o f quick
delivery was delayed more than
a month.
The express companies started
sending their consignments over
the new road on the second day
after it was opened for traffic,
and the clamor o f the people for
